Yeah.. so when I sent guys out on an expedition hoping for artifacts..

This would make one hell of a D&D story, two drunken dwarves made a bet with the entire tabern, that they could steal at least 1 barrel of beer from the brewery of the goblin capital in the deepest pit in those lands.

there is a story here and i want to know the whole thing

Why do I see my alcoholic D&D dwarf doing this with a friend?

The artists watermark is on the dang bridge. look with your special eyes instead of debating whether or not its AI.

Ai cant get small details. The goblins in the background are not mangled, their shadows are consistent, and you can make out things like the wear on the walls. Safe to say it isn't AI.

That looks amazing

Not only the fingers its the lighting & shadows. the light is accurately represented here

They all have the right number of fingers. That's how I usually tell if it's AI.
